Audiophiles and music enthusiasts looking for a high-quality DAC/headphone amp will be thrilled with the black FiiO K3 V2 is a compact desktop USB-C DAC and headphone amplifier designed for use with any compatible USB device.

Updates to the K3 V2 include an upgraded ESS DAC (ES9038Q2M), which provides an increased signal-to-noise ratio of 14 dB and reduced distortion by 13 dB. The circuit design has been optimized for a low-noise floor and clean sound. FiiO also improved various performance indicators and overall sound quality, allowing you to immerse yourself in your music. Other notable features include an updated USB Type-C interface for a more reliable and stable connection. The unit now employs overvoltage protection and a double-filter circuit to ensure power supply stability. Digital and analog audio circuits each have their own power supply, which greatly reduces crosstalk.

The K3 V2 is equipped with an XMOS USB receiver chip, allowing the device to decode files up to 384 kHz / 32-bit PCM, as well as native DSD256 files. It supports USB Audio Class 1.0 (up to 96 kHz / 24-bit) and 2.0 (up to 384 kHz / 32-bit and DSD256). Designed to provide a hi-fi audio experience, the K3 V2 accurately presents your audio as it was intended by its creators.

For analog outputs, a 3.5mm single-ended connector is provided for use with your regular headphones, while a 2.5mm connector is designed for balanced headphones. Additionally, the K3 V2 includes a 3.5mm line output for connecting to monitors or home theater setups. Should your speaker system, amplifier, or external decoder require a digital connection, the K3 V2 is also equipped with RCA coaxial and optical connectors. Other notable features include a bass-boost switch, a high-/low-gain level switch, and an ADC volume control, which provides smooth level adjustments. The FiiO K3 V2 includes a set of extra foot pads and a USB cable.

Handmade and sonically pristine, the Neumann V 402 is a rackmount 2-channel microphone, instrument, or line preamplifier, painstakingly designed to deliver the true sound of your source at any gain setting. Its transformerless circuitry ensures detailed sound without coloration, and its onboard studio-grade headphone amp enables convenient monitoring of your live inputs.

With up to 60 dB of gain, switchable -20 dB pads, and 60 Hz high-pass filters, you can easily dial in and optimize your signal while avoiding distortion and degradation. Front-panel DI inputs make the V 402 equally ideal for Hi-Z instruments such as electric guitar and bass, as well as dynamic and condenser microphones.

Each channel also provides selectable 48V phantom power, switchable polarity, and a multi-segment meter. Separate volume controls allow you to adjust the balance for the monitoring mix, which feeds the front-panel 1/4" headphone output.
